Easy Spicy Sardine Samosa Recipe
(makes about 20)
Ingredients:
½ packet large spring roll skins
1 can spicy tomato sardines, finely flaked (I use a Thai brand, Masam curry. Don't worry if you can't find one. You can improvise using this recipe – see step 3*)
1 large potato, peeled and diced

a little cornflour, mixed with water to form a paste
oil for deep-
How to make spicy sardine samosas:
1. Heat cooking oil in a pan until hot. Stir-
2. Remove potato from pan. Wipe the pan surface with a paper towel to remove excess oil.
3. Return the potatoes to pan, and pour in flaked sardine.
*If you can't get hold of spicy sardines, here's what you can do – blend together 1 clove garlic, 1 stalk lemongrass, 1 red chili, 2 shallots, ½ teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon lime juice and a small piece of belacan. Fry them until fragrant and add to canned sardines.
4. Cook for 5 minutes, until the mixture is slightly dry. Remove everything from pan, and let cool.
5. Take one spring roll skin, and cut into 3 strips lengthwise.
6. Place about 1 heaped tablespoon of the sardine mixture at the end of the spring roll strip Fold one corner over diagonally to align with the opposite side of the strip. You should get a triangle at the base of the spring roll skin.
7. Continue to fold the rest of the strip around the triangle.
8. Seal the edge with flour paste.
9. Repeat until the sardine mixture is used up.
10. Deep fry sardine samosas in very hot oil (in batches), until crisp and golden. Enjoy!
